Its members are normal people, activists, freedom fighters, drifters, drug addicts, politicians, etc.
and keeping your sanity and posts within the realms of what is allowed is a big job.
We have had3 students livestreaming their sexacapes on Facebook, a studentlivestreaming a movie premier earlier.
But what caught everybodys notice was a recent murder of a 28-year-old Chicago man was captured live on Facebook.
One minute the man was hanging out with friends and livestreaming on Facebook.
The next, there are sounds of gunshots and screaming.
Watching this gruesome spectacle on Facebook raises questions about how can the online grid giant allow such livestreaming.
According to Facebook, the video doesnt violate its community standards because it doesnt believe the video celebrates violence.
According to the Facebook gods, its falls under a different category: Raising awareness.
Therefore instead of removing those types of videos, Facebook marks them with a user warning.
Now consider another post in which an ISIS sympathizer killed a police commander and livestreamed it earlier this week.
Facebook immediately pulled off that video.
The company does, however, always allow photos of women showing post-mastectomy scarring or actively engaging in breastfeeding.
Although some genuine breastfeeding posts have been removed.
More so before 2014, moms had been complaining that their breastfeeding pics were removed.
In 2014, Facebook relaxed its breastfeeding policy a bit to allow for these types of non-sexual images.
But you are allowed to post photos of, say, yourself smoking marijuana out of a bong.
That means Facebook has 1.65 billion people helping enforce its standards but whats considered appropriate is far from universal.
